To be clear here; presumably the plan is to force either a confrontation with the federal government at the cost of a few martyrs, to force the resignation of top officials in the opposition party (probably the President), generate political support for Downmarket Mussolini and his acolytes in the upcoming elections, and perhaps even simply cause enough chaos to disrupt the function of government and kick off another chud rush/secession movement.
I've seen this film before; up close.
